Does silicone IOL has less chance of decentration ?

[taurus1203]

Dr Oyakawa,
I have read some articles that the chance of silione/PMMA IOL of decentration more than 0.4mm is the lowest ? Is it true that silicone has less tendency to decentration. I also see a few other benefits of silicone IOL. But what is the drawback except silicone oil cannot be used in the retinal surgery in the future ?

Thanks

Thanks for reply.
Basically, you also agree that there is no disadvantage to use silicone IOL except that silicone oil cannot be used in the future. Am I correct ?
I believe silicone is good because it has a lower refractive index and has less chance to introduce dysphotosia.
My surgeon suggested me to use the either Sofport AO or AOV as this matches my SA the best. I think the other advantages is this IOL will not introduce high order abberation even with mild decentration.
Is the violet shield version used more commonly in US ?

Thanks
